Deserted village.

Enterprises: Como. long famed as the
/" deserted village" Of Nevada, is coming
to the front and may yet become ss pros.
porous as of yore. The best example Of q
deserted village at present known on the
Pacific Coast is Houston. Idaho. Three
years ago it contained over 500 inhabit.
ants; now there are, all told, nine persons
in the place. The town has . fresh and
bright look. There is q handsome hotel
on the main street; q big smelter is seen;
there ia q large brewery, and all along the
principal street stand neat stores with
fresh.looking signs, but the people are
gone and all is silent. A newspaper outft
was brought in and is there yet. The
town collapsed before Q paper was issued,
and the owners Of the material seem 10
have never since had money enough to pay
the freight out. The town sprung up on
the strength of q big copper prospect; the
copper 90 petered " and the people skedsd.
died, many Of them leaving behind furni'
ture and ell else except clothing and some
light and valuable goods.

A New Game Of Pool.

The latest game introduced iuto the city
is Rudolph pool" 1t is already very
popular with tn Q young bloods who de.
light to gamble. A board about two fee,
square with holes, in which are numbers
from one to twenty-five. Is placed on an
ordinary billiard table. The contestants
in the game pay ten cents for q shot, and
each one is allowed to hit the ball against
the cushion and il bounds back into the
board on the table and falls into one OF
the holes, the competitor getting into the
hole with the highest number secures the
money, less Is per cent, which the runner
Of the game holds ont as his commission.
Sometimes there are as many as thirty in
one round, and as the proprietor gets two
cents from every shot, and the shots fol-
low one another in quick succession. it
will be seen that it is q great institution
for the banker.

more comprehensive. The County AS

Section 6. Said Bureau shall require Of
each County Assessor in this State from

istics as will aid in carrying out the pro-
visions Of the Act, and any County
Assessor who shall refuse or wilfully me-
glect to give such information and stat
istics when so requested, if in his power
shall be guilty Of malfeasnances in office
and shall be prosecuted and punished
therefore as provided by law. Other
county officers shall, so far as in their
power, aid Assessors in performing the
duties herein imposed.-Virginia Chron-

An Aged Democrat who Never
Rode ON q Railroad Train.
The oldest man in Stephenson county,
says the Chicago I~nter-Ocean. IL not in
Illinois, died recently at his home, about
IL miles northwest Of Freeport, in Oneco
township. Had he lived until July 20
Mr.. Smith would have been 102 years old.
He was born in Guilford county, N. G.
In 1915 he moved to Highland county,
Ohio, and from there came to Stephenson
county in 1916, and has resided there ever
since. When about 20 years old he mar.
ried Dorcss Mcdaniel in his native county.
She bore him IL children. all of whom
but one grew to manhood and woman
hood. Two years ago his Tooth birthday
anniversary was celebrated with great
pomp, there being present on that occa-
sion perhaps 1000 people. When in his
younger days he enjoyed fishing and hunt
ing exceedingly. but when il came time
for him to get down TO business he learned
the blacksmith trade, which he followed
for some time. The greater part OF his
life was devoted to farming. With the
exception Of chewing tobacco Mr.. Smith
was q most temperate man all his life.
He never joined any church, but had always
been an attentive and careful reader OF
the Bible. He cast his first Presidential
vote for James Madison and his last for
Grover Cleveland, and had always been a
Democrat. He never rode on q railroad
train and never ate o meal in q hotel.

"Sure, sorr, the tears have kilt me
